Orientation 10 PIRACY DOESNT PAY! On Aug 1, 2009, a federal court
ordered a Boston University Student to pay $22,5oo per song he had
pirated. Having stolen 30 songs, the total amount he owes is
$675,000. If he had bought the songs off of iTunes, they would have
cost him $29.70. Piracy is not limited to movies or songs. It is
illegal to take any data or software, that is intended for sale,
without paying for it!
